9 Introduction Introduction Introduction Welcome to the SM/REx 500 version User s manual. SM/REx 500, version 2.0, is intended for parameter setting and supervision of the corresponding terminals: - REx 500 multi functional terminal - REL 501 line distance protection terminal - REL 511 line distance protection terminal - REL 521 line distance protection terminal - REL 531 line high speed distance protection terminal - REL 551 line differential protection terminal - REL 561 line differential and distance protection terminal - REB 551 breaker protection terminal - REC 561 control terminal version 2.0. The software runs on a PC system using the DOS operating system.! Note! The SM/REx 500, version 2.0 can not be used with previous versions than 2.0 of the terminals in the previous list. When REx 5xx terminal is mentioned in this User s manual, it is understood as the terminal type that were mentioned in the previous list. Once a terminal is installed, the user can change the text to the type of terminal, for example, after installing SM/REx 500, the text can be changed to REL 531, using the edit function. For more details, see Ref.2 in chapter 4: References. The SM/REx 500 software module is part of SMS 010, hereafter simply denoted SMS. The Station Monitoring System (SMS) consists of four functional parts: Parameter setting and supervision Disturbance recording evaluation Event handling Time synchronisation Before SM/REx 500 can be used, the platform program SMS-BASE must be installed on the PC system. 1MRK UEN*

10 Terminal parameter setting and supervision Introduction Introduction The SMS-BASE is the platform program always required to run SM/REx 500 and other SM/... software modules. When SM/REx 500 is installed, it will be integrated in the SMS-BASE software structure. The product can be considered as the library files required for SMS-BASE to communicate with REx 5xx. The REPORT program must also be installed if SMS is to be used for event and alarm handling of the REx 5xx terminal. To be able to make use of this document the user should be familiar with SMS-BASE. For more information regarding SMS-BASE functions, please refer to the SMS-BASE User s Guide (see Ref. 2 in chapter 4: References ). This software module is developed and manufactured by ABB Network Partner AB, Västerås, Sweden. 1 Terminal parameter setting and supervision Terminal parameter setting and supervision, sometimes also called protection/control monitoring, is a means for getting the same information on a PC as that available on the built-in HMI (Human-Machine-Interface) on the front of the terminal. In this case, even more information is available through the PC. This means that the SM/REx 500 program is a way to access information stored in the terminal that is not available on the built-in HMI of the terminal, e.g. time tagged disturbance reports and event functions settings. 1.1 Product overview The ABB Network Partner PANORAMA concept contains a full range of flexible and functional systems for monitoring, protection, and control of all parts in the power system. The terminals in the REx 5xx-series consist of several numerical highperformance terminals for medium and high voltage applications. Almost all information and settings available in the terminals can also be made available in a PC equipped with SMS programs. For the REx 5xx, the CAP 531 configuration tool is also required for configuration of the function blocks. Since SMS also supports communication via telephone modems this makes SMS a way to travel to the station by communication link, making physical presence in the station unnecessary. Besides the SM/REx 500 software module, there are other programs available for efficient use of the information stored in the terminals. 6 1MRK UEN*2.0-00

17 Installation Instructions Instructions For communication via telephone modems: (see Ref 2. in chapter 4: References, SMS-BASE User s Guide, Appendix C) Public telephone network according to CCITT. Hayes compatible telephone modems that understand AT commands. For more details on building up the hardware, see Ref. 1 in chapter 4: References.). SMS communication with a REx 5xx terminal does not delay the protection/control function. The communication only affect the protection functions when new parameter settings are transmitted to the terminal. When new parameter settings (Settings, Configuration, Test, Event Masks) are downloaded, or when the active parameter setting group is changed, the terminal is blocked for typically 45 seconds. This will occur each time a data part containing settable parameters is transmitted to the terminal. 1.3 The README file The SM/REx 500 diskette and the FrontRECOM diskette both includes a README.TXT file. This file contains last minute news to be added to the User s manual, i.e. improvements made after the User s manual was printed. The README files are delivered in uncompressed format and should be read prior to installation. 1.4 Installation procedures Installation of the SM/REx 500 and the FrontRECOM programs is made by decompressing and copying files from the diskettes to the hard disk. This is normally designated C, but other disks can also be used. From here on, it is assumed that the installation procedure is carried out from disk drive A:. However, any other drive will of course be possible. In order to avoid problems, installation of the DOS-based programs is to be made directly in DOS, and not via MS Windows. It is also recommended not to have shell programs, like Norton Commander, active during the installation.

When the Object screen is shown, press C to open the screen for editing communication parameters. The important setting to check in this menu is Handshake, which has to be set to RTS-idle. This setting also works for remote communication with the terminal over modems via the rear ports. 3 Set the Baud rate for the front port communication correctly. Check the terminal baude rate setting using the local HMI, and set the PC to the same value. This setting is to be found under the local HMI menu: Configuration/SPA Comm/Front/... 4 Check that the Slave number is correct in all the data parts. Check the terminal slave number setting using the local HMI, and set the PC to the same value.this setting is also to be found under the local HMI menu: Configuration/SPA Comm/Front/... The list shown above is an example on how to set the communication parameters. All setting restrictions are set to OPEN on the front port, as described in chapter 3, paragraph Setting restrictions on page Starting the SM/REx 500 program SMS-BASE and SM/REx 500 is started from DOS in the following way: 1 Change the command line directory to C:\SMS\BASE by typing c: and then press <Enter>, type cd\sms\base and then press <Enter>. 2 Type smsbase and press <Enter> to start the program. 1MRK UEN*

22 Basic operation Instructions Instructions To start the SMS-BASE program from an MS Windows icon, please refer to paragraph Handling SMS under MS Windows on page 69.! Note! Once a terminal object is installed into the SMS-BASE application structure, the user may change the presented text. The type designation of the used control/protection terminal can be added. However, the module definition in the beginning of the text must not be changed. This part is used as reference by the SW Example: REX500A V2.0 C REL 511 Protection and Control terminal Bold: Not to be changed. Underlined:User defined text. For more details see Ref.2 in chapter 4: References. 2 Basic operation In this chapter the work flow for some typical tasks when using SM/REx 500, are described. 2.1 Changing settings in a terminal! Note! When changing parameter settings (Settings, Configuration, Test and Event Masks) or when changing active parameter setting group, the terminal will be blocked for typically 45 seconds Presenting options The terminals consist of many different functions, of which some are basic and some are options. After having installed a new REx 5xx terminal in the Application structure in SMS-BASE, it will be shown as if all options available for the terminal type are installed. But after having communicated with the terminal once (twice is needed in some cases), the screens will automatically be corrected to show only the functions that are currently installed. If you have prepared settings in advance, you must write them to the terminal first. 18 1MRK UEN*2.0-00

23 Basic operation Instructions Instructions Some parts of the SM/REx 500 only contain information belonging to one specific option. The first screen on such part will give information whether the option is installed or not. If not, it is recommended to remove the whole part, as described in paragraph Removing Parts of Unit from an installation on page 68, since it does not contain any relevant information Read or Write multiple parameters to or from a terminal All parameters for a Group (Disturbance Report, Service Report, Settings, Configuration and Event Masks) can be read or written to the terminal in one step. This will allow for monitoring or setting multiple parameters in several parts of SM/REx 500, by means of viewing and saving changes on the PC, instead of reading or writing data to or from the terminal each time a new part of SM/REx 500 is selected. This feature is especially valuable when setting a REx 5xx terminal for the first time, since the multiple write command will confirm to the user that all settings prepared in advance are downloaded to the terminal. 1MRK UEN*

24 Basic operation Instructions Instructions The multiple read or write function is available for: DRP--OVERReads all disturbance data (in parts DRP-INDC, DRP-EVEL, DRP-TRIP) from the terminal to the PC. SRV--ALL Reads all service values from the terminal to the PC. SET--ALL Reads or writes all settings from/to the terminal to/from the PC. CNF--ALL Reads or writes all configurations from/to the terminal to/from the PC. MSK--ALL Reads or writes all event masks from/to the terminal to/from the PC. Example of reading all settings from/to the terminal 1 Select the SET--ALL part under the group Settings. 2 Select Read ALL settings and press <Enter> The terminal data is now read to all SET-xxxx parts in the PC, in the same order as the parts are listed. The part currently executed is shown in the bottom left corner of the SMS-BASE screen. When the communication information box in the middle of the screen has disappeared and no current part is shown in the bottom left corner, all settings have been read and stored on the PC. All settings in each SET-xxxx part can be viewed by selecting Monitor PC-file information for each data part. 1 Select the SET-xxxx part containing the settings to be viewed. 2 Select Monitor PC-file information and press <Enter> Example of writing all settings to the terminal As the command Write ALL settings writes all settings from the PC to the terminal, all settings in each SET-xxxx part should first be changed to the desired value. If the settings stored in the terminal are to be modified, read first all settings to the PC as described in the previous section. 1 Select the SET-xxxx part containing the settings to be modified. Select Monitor PC-file information and press <Enter>. Change the settings, press <Esc> to leave the SET-xxxx part and press <Enter> twice to save the new settings. As all changes will be written to the terminal from the SET--ALL, it is not necessary to write the settings to the terminal, press <Esc> 20 1MRK UEN*2.0-00

25 Basic operation Instructions Instructions 2 Repeat the previous step for all SET-xxxx parts in which the settings should be modified. 3 Select the SET--ALL part. 4 Select the Write ALL settings You will now be asked if you want to write the selected group to the terminal. Press <Y> and then <Enter>. The PC-file information for all SET-xxxx parts is now written to the terminal in the same order as the parts are listed. The part currently executed is shown in the bottom left corner of the SMS-BASE screen. When the communication information box in the middle of the screen has disappeared and no current part is shown in the bottom left corner, all settings have been written to and stored in the terminal. The settings will be automatically read back to the PC for each SET-xxxx part, after the settings have been stored in the terminal. You can now verify the downloaded settings by selecting Monitoring PC-file information for each SET-xxxx part and check that the Present values stored in the terminal are the same as the New values that was entered in the PC.! Note! The write command that downloads ALL data parts is NOT password protected. Delete the xxx--all parts from the application structure if the ability to write ALL data parts without password is to be omitted. To uninstall the parts, see paragraph Removing Parts of Unit from an installation on page Alternating between setting groups 1 Select the SET-ACTI Change Active SetGroup part. 2 Select Read present group No. to PC-file to check which setting group is currently active. 3 Select Enter new group No. to monitor the active setting group and to enter the new one. On the top, the Remote change shows OPEN if change of active group is possible from SMS. 4 Select New group - Active setting group by pressing <Enter>, selecting the new group and the press <Enter> again. When the new group is entered, leave the editor with <Esc> and answer yes <Y> to the following questions by pressing <Enter> twice. 1MRK UEN*

26 Basic operation Instructions Instructions 5 Select Write new group No. to terminal and press <Enter>. 6 Enter the correct password and press <Enter>. 7 Press <Enter> again to proceed. When the active setting group is changed, the terminal will be blocked for typically 45 seconds. 2.3 Setting REx 5xx terminal time The terminal has an internal real time clock including full-time, i.e., date and time. The clock can be checked, and set from SM/REx 500 on a minute basis. The setting of the terminal time is not affected by the setting restrictions ( OPEN / BLOCKED ) in the terminal, i.e., it can always be changed. The format of the time is YY-MM-DD HH.MM:SS. Use the following work flow to check and, if necessary, set the REx 5xx terminal time: 1 Check and set the date and time of the PC (if necessary). 2 Read the internal time of the terminal by means of SET-TIME. Select Read terminal time to PC-file followed by Enter new time setting. 3 Compare the Terminal Time on screen 1 with the PC-file Time to check if the terminal time should be corrected. 4 Enter the full date and time. Add a few minutes to the time entry, e.g., if the time is when the string is entered, set the Terminal Time to When the new time is entered, leave the monitor mode immediately by pressing <Esc> and answer yes (Y) to the following questions by pressing <Enter> twice. 6 Select Write new time setting to terminal. 7 Enter the correct password and press <Enter>. Wait until Press <Enter> to leave the password function and to start the communication process. 9 Check the new REx 5xx terminal time by means of SET-TIME. Select Read terminal time to PC-file followed by Enter new time setting. Compare the read Terminal Time with the PC-file Time. For accurate setting of the terminal time it is recommended to utilise the local HMI, since the communication procedure in SMS makes accurate setting of the time difficult. 22 1MRK UEN*2.0-00

27 Basic operation Instructions Instructions! Note! It is only possible to change terminal time when no synchronisation source is configured. If a synchronisation source is configured, the time setting will be rejected by the REx 5xx terminal. 2.4 Archive disturbance data The easiest way to store disturbance data is to use the report facility and store the screens either on paper or in a text file. This facility is useful since only one disturbance at a time can be selected in the DRP-OVER part for detailed information in the other DRP-... parts. When storing information in a file the following procedure is to be followed: 1 Select one of the 10 disturbances in the DRP-OVER part for more detailed information. See also paragraph DRP-OVER Disturbance Overview on page Select, for example, the DRP-INDC part for information regarding the indications during the selected disturbance. 3 Select Read terminal data to PC-file and then Monitor PC-file information. 4 The selection F7 REPORT is given at the bottom of the screen. When pressing <F7> a selection list is presented as shown in the following figure. Fig. 1 Selection list obtained by pressing <F7>. 1MRK UEN*

28 Basic operation Instructions Instructions 5 Select Report all screens to file. All the information on the screens in the current Part of Unit will now be stored in a file given a name set by the date of the PC, and the extension SRP. 6 By selecting Start DOS-shell at file directory, the path to the directory where the file is stored is given. Information on the file can be accessed using, for example, the DOS-Edit editor, i.e. by typing edit _0.SRP at the DOS-prompt. For more information regarding these facilities, refer to the SMS-BASE User s Guide (see Ref. 2 in chapter 4: References ). 2.5 Using REPORT with SM/REx 500 The REPORT program is used for event, alarm and log reporting in the Station Monitoring System (SMS). The REPORT program is integrated with SMS-BASE and polls up to 16 defined stations in the application structure for events, alarms and log values. The result is presented to the user in form of logging files and screens. A complete REPORT system for an application comprises protection relays/terminals, a SRIO 500/1000 M or SACO 100M data communicator, a PC with SMS-BASE installed, REPORT and SM/... product/-s. REPORT communicates with the relays/terminals via the SRIO/SACO data communicator unit using the SACO 100M protocol. REPORT synchronises the operation of the entire system. To use REPORT for a REx 5xx terminal, the corresponding software module SM/REx 500 and SMS-BASE must be installed. SM/REx 500 contains the event, alarm and logging parameter tables for the REx 5xx terminal, necessary for handling REPORT data in the REPORT station. Only the parts that are specific for using SM/REx 500 together with REPORT is described in this User s manual. For installation, configuration and general use of the REPORT program, refer to Report User s Guide (see Ref. 4 in chapter 4: References) Configuration of Event and Alarm tables To configure the event, alarm and log handling for SM/REx 500, select Alter additional configurations in the UTILITIES menu. 24 1MRK UEN*2.0-00

The menus in the SM/REx 500 program are presented with explanations of the contents and how to use them. 1.1 Overview The following flow of activities is typical when using SM/REx 500: The user: Creates and maintains an application structure. Establish communication via telephone modems or direct connection. Selects from the application structure the terminal to work with. Orders data to be sent from the terminal to the PC, by selecting Read terminal data to PC-file. Observes the presented data by selecting Monitor PC-file information. Reads the information sent from the terminal. Orders new data to be sent from the PC to the terminal by selecting Write PCfile settings to terminal. A write procedure is automatically followed by a verification procedure, to ensure that the settings are changed correctly. The SMS-BASE program is a standard application run in DOS, consisting of the following parts: 1 Function keys: <Esc> EXIT from current menu. <F7> REPORT generation, i.e., printing of screens. <F8> Start DOS window. <PgDn> Display NEXT screen. <PgUp> Display PREVIOUS screen. <Enter> CHANGE value. 2 Menu items: The menus offer a number of functions which are explained in the SMS-BASE User s Guide (see Ref. 2 in chapter 4: References). When a terminal is selected on the unit level, a list of functional groups is shown. Each group contains the different parts of the terminal. The user selects a group by pressing <Enter>. The parts within the group are then shown. The user can select any of the parts by pressing <Enter>, and perform actions to display or modify information related to the selected part. The user can: 1MRK UEN*

34 Extensive operation Read settings and information from the terminal. Monitor settings and information stored in the PC. Write settings to the terminal. Generate and print reports. When data is written to the terminal, a password has to be entered by the user. The password check assumes one password common to all the units in one station. Communication to the terminals is performed through the SPA-bus protocol Navigating through the SMS structure The SELECT menu includes the application structure, either built with the Alter application structure function, or installed from a diskette. The application structure fulfils its task by means of mapping the real world hierarchy of Organization, Station, Object, Unit, Groups and Part of Unit into the directory structure. The user navigates through the structure using the <Arrow>, <Home>, <End>, <PgUp>, and <PgDn> keys. Press <Enter> to select an item in the structure. Press <Esc> to return from a selected item in the structure Changing application structure To change the application structure, select the Application structure path function in the SETUP menu. The path to the application structure is by default C:\SMS\DATA-EX Altering application structure To work with the application structure, select the Alter application structure function in the UTILITIES menu. A new application structure must be built when SMS-BASE is started for the first time, 1.2 Handling SM/REx 500 In this section the general handling of SM/REx 500 is described Setting restrictions Remote setting restrictions can be set on the REx 5xx local HMI, which disables the possibility to set parameters in the REx 5xx terminal from SMS. However, parameters and information can always be read. 30 1MRK UEN*2.0-00

35 Extensive operation The access rights have the following alternatives: Access rights on remote communication ports (rear) Switching between setting groups Setting of individual parameters Open or Blocked Setting made under Configuration/SPA/IEC Comm/Rear menu node Open or Blocked Setting made under Configuration/ SPAComm/Rear menu node The setting of the access rights can only be done via the local HMI. For communication on the front port of the terminal, no setting restrictions exist. For instructions on how to communicate via the front port, see paragraph Communicating via the REx 5xx front port on page 17. Access rights on front communication port Switching between setting groups Setting of individual parameters Open Open Password handling A password must be entered as an introduction to each activity that can change the settings of the protection terminal. The password is the same for all terminals in one station. This means that if the password is changed during communication with one terminal, the new password is valid for all terminals in that station. Remote setting activities are allowed according to the setting restrictions set via the local HMI on the REx 5xx terminal. The default password for a new station is 000.! Note! The SET--ALL, CNF--ALL and MSK--ALL parts have no password handling. This means that these parts can write data to the terminal without entering any password. To inhibit this function, the SET--ALL, CNF-ALL and MSK--ALL parts should be removed from the structure as described in paragraph Removing Parts of Unit from an installation on page 68 1MRK UEN*

36 Extensive operation Configuring functions and logical elements The terminal configuration of all application functions and logical elements is performed using the CAP 531 Configuration Tool (CAP/REx 500). No configuration of the application functions and logical elements is available in the SM/REx Parts of Unit in SM/REx 500 In this section an overview of all SM/REx 500 parts is given. Some data parts are described more thoroughly in the following chapters. Prior to the first communication session with the terminal, the information is presented as if all options were installed. The reason is that it must be possible to prepare all settings in advance. But after having communicated once with the terminal, the data entry fields belonging to options not installed will disappear. In the table below all parts of unit in SM/REx 500 are listed. For each data part a description together with the screen contents is presented. References: Technical reference manual for corresponding terminal REx 5xx * MRK UEN*2.0-00

56 Extensive operation Screen 1 - Disturbance numbering The terminal has a storage capacity of 10 disturbances, equivalent to approximately 1,5 Mb. On the local HMI these are numbered 1-10, while in SMS the index number is used. The reason for this is that after the user has read the DRP-OVER, and selected, for example, the last disturbance designated Disturbance 1, a new disturbance might occur in the terminal. This means that Disturbance 1 has changed contents. Instead, by using the index number 0-200, the number of the selected disturbance will be unique, and the situation described will never occur.

Active Setting Grp shows which setting group was active during the disturbance. Stat, Obj and Unit shows the station, object and unit numbers and associated label texts. Event Recorder required shows if the Event recorder function is installed in the terminal or not. If not, it is recommended to remove the DRP-EVEL part as mentioned earlier. 1MRK UEN*

62 Extensive operation Screen 2 to 5 - Information presented Fig. 12 DRP-EVEL Screen 2 The events among the 48 binary signals selected by the user are shown along with the time tag. The events are presented with the user-defined signal names. The event list for each disturbance contains a maximum of 150 events presented on four screens. The first event on the first screen is the first event that occurred within the disturbance, and the following events are presented in chronological order DRP-TRIP Trip values The part DRP-TRIP contains information on trip values related to the disturbance that was selected in the part DRP-OVER. The Measurement 1A/5A function must be installed in the terminal in order to get any values. If not, all values always show 0. In this case, the whole part can be removed as shown in paragraph Removing Parts of Unit from an installation on page 68 in this chapter. 58 1MRK UEN*2.0-00

63 Extensive operation Screen 1 - Information presented Fig. 13 DRP-TRIP Screen 1 If no disturbances are stored in the terminal this will be indicated with the text WARNING - NO DISTURBANCES STORED IN TERMINAL. If the disturbances were stored while the terminal was in test mode, this will be indicated with the text WARNING - RECORDING MADE IN TESTMODE. Disturbance information shows some basic information regarding the selected disturbance. Number is the same number as was selected in the part DRP-OVER. Date, Time is the time of the triggering of the disturbance report. Daily Sequence No shows the terminal sequence number of this specific disturbance report.

64 Extensive operation Screen 2 - Information presented Fig. 14 DRP-TRIP Screen 2 On the top of the screen No. of the disturbance, Date, Time and Trig Signal are shown. The phasors for the prefault conditions are shown on the left part of the screen along with the frequency. To the right, the phasors for the fault conditions are shown. 60 1MRK UEN*2.0-00

65 Extensive operation DRP-CLRS Clears and Manual trig In the part DRP-CLRS it is possible to clear LED indications and disturbances stored in the terminal. It is also possible to activate a manual trig that generates a disturbance report. Screen 1 - Performing a manual trig Fig. 15 DRP-CLRS Screen 1 By selecting Yes on the Manual Trig of a Recording all disturbance reporting functions available in the terminal is activated when the command is sent to the terminal. If 10 disturbances are stored in the terminal or if the disturbance memory is full, this action will overwrite the oldest disturbance. Screen 1 - Clearing information The HMI LEDs will be cleared if selecting Yes. This corresponds to pressing the C button on the local HMI. All disturbance reports, i.e. the information available in the different DRP-... parts and RECOM will be erased if selecting Yes. After this action the disturbance memory will be empty. Screen 1 - Note All desired settings have to be made each time since all actions set to Yes will be performed when selecting Write settings to terminal. For this reason, always start with the command Read terminal data to PC-file, as this action will set all answers to No. All actions in the DPR-CLRS part can be carried out even if remote setting is blocked in the terminal. However, a password is requested before any clearing activity can take place. 1MRK UEN*

66 Extensive operation RECOM REx5xxV1 Unit disturbance summary The RECOM REx5xxV1 part enables the PC to collect the disturbance recordings stored in the terminal. Presentation on the screen differs, depending on whether FrontRECOM or RECOM is installed in the PC. In this chapter, only FrontRECOM is described since it is included in the SM/REx 500 package. For more information regarding RECOM, refer to the RECOM User s guide. Ref. 3 in chapter 4: References. To get any information, the Disturbance recorder function must be installed in the terminal. On screen 4 of the TRM-OVER part, information is shown whether the Disturbance recorder function is installed or not. If not, the RECOM screen is always empty. In this case the whole part can be removed as shown in paragraph Removing Parts of Unit from an installation on page 68 in this chapter. Screen 1 - Information presented Fig. 16 RECOM REx 500 Screen 1 On top of the screen the names of Station, Object and Unit are shown. Note that these are the names entered in SMS-BASE. This means that it is not the names read from the terminal, which is the case in all other parts in SM/REx 500. On the upper right hand side DIRECT is shown, if direct communication connection is selected in the SMS-BASE communication setup. The list shows all disturbances stored in the terminal (up to 10) and all disturbances stored only in the PC, i.e. disturbances no longer available in the terminal. The first and second columns show the date and the daily sequence number. The first disturbance occurring each day will get the daily sequence number 000. The next will get the sequence number 001, and so on. Note that this number is not the same number as shown in the DRP-OVER part. In this case the number is an index running from 0 to 200 in order to give each disturbance in the terminal database an unique number. In the parts DRP-INDC, DRP-EVEL and DRP-TRIP both the index number and the daily sequence number are shown on the first screen. 62 1MRK UEN*2.0-00

67 Extensive operation The third and fourth columns indicate where the disturbance is stored. R stands for disturbance file, and H stands for header file. If the disturbance memory is full due to long recording times, the oldest disturbances might consist of the header only. There might also be disturbances that are only stored in the PC, because the whole recording has been deleted or overwritten in the terminal. Time shows when the trigger of the disturbance recorder was activated. Trig is the triggering signal, analogue or binary, or manual triggering.screen 1 - Uploading a disturbance to the PC Screen 1 - Uploading a disturbance to the PC To upload a disturbance to the PC, the disturbance of interest has to be highlighted by positioning the cursor with the <up arrow> and <down arrow> keys. Press <U> to upload all information, i.e. the header (H) and the disturbance file (R) from the terminal to the PC. This action will not delete the recording in the terminal. It will still be available for other users until it is manually deleted or overwritten by new disturbances. The uploaded disturbance will be stored in the same directory structure as the terminal settings, e.g. c:\sms\data\o001\s001\o001\u001. The name of the disturbance file will be, for example, RE*, where the first six digits are the date, YYMMDD, and the last two the sequence number. The file name extension is REV for the disturbance file and REH for the header file. When opening the file with the REVAL disturbance evaluation program, the same station and unit names as entered in SMS-BASE will be shown in order to simplify the handling. Screen 1 - Refreshing information on screen The refresh selection <R> updates the information on the screen, e.g. if a new disturbance has occurred.! Screen 1 - Deleting a disturbance from the PC The delete selection <D> deletes the current highlighted disturbance file in the PC. Note! It is only the PC-file containing the disturbance information that is deleted. Disturbances stored in the terminal are not affected. Screen 1 - Getting Help The help selection <E> presents a short help text for the handling of FrontRECOM. Screen 1 - Exiting FrontRECOM To exit the FrontRECOM Unit disturbance summary, press <Esc> or <X>. 1MRK UEN*

68 Extensive operation! Note! If the disturbance memory is full, and the oldest disturbance is uploaded at the same time as a new disturbance occurs, the information in the oldest disturbance will be lost. This will result in a disturbance that is only partly stored on the PC, and will not be possible to open by the REVAL disturbance evaluation program. The REVAL program then gives the indication Not readable. 1.7 TRM--REP InternalEvents - SelfSuperv The part TRM--REP consists of the status of the terminal, coming from the self supervision functions, and article numbers of the terminal and the included hardware modules. Screen 1 - Information presented Fig. 17 TRM--REP Screen 1 READ ERROR - THE CONTENTS CHANGED. READ AGAIN This warning is displayed if Internal Events shown on screen 2-3 has changed during the communication. To access an updated list, the data part must be read again by selecting Read terminal data to PC-file. 64 1MRK UEN*2.0-00

69 Extensive operation Screen 2 to 3 - Information presented Fig. 18 TRM--REP Screen 2 On these screens the internal events of the terminal are presented. The list mainly contains events from the internal self supervision signals. The list is a first-in-first-out list. All the events are presented with date and time. The latest event is always presented as the last event in the list. The events are presented in chronological order. Screen 4 - Information presented Fig. 19 TRM--REP Screen 4 On these screens, the current status of all self supervision signals, at the time of communication with the terminal, is presented along with a brief explanation. All activated self supervision signals in this list are also included in the internal event list on screen 2. 1MRK UEN*

70 Extensive operation Screen 5 to 6 - Information presented Fig. 20 TRM--REP Screen 5 Fig. 21 TRM--REP Screen 6 On this screen the article numbers of the included hardware modules are presented. The reason for this information is to give the user the correct identification number if a module is faulty and has to be replaced. The article numbers of all I/O-modules and the CPU-module are stored as a code on the module itself and will automatically be updated if the module is replaced. The terminal type and version number are presented together with a unique serial number of the terminal. The Ordering No. of the terminal is also presented. 66 1MRK UEN*2.0-00

71 Extensive operation Screen 7 - Settable parameters Fig. 22 TRM--REP screen 7 On this screen the notes made by the user are shown. After downloading, these notes are stored in the terminal and can be read by other users from other locations using the SMS. The user notes are intended to store information regarding, for example, additional hardware co-operating with the terminal, or the date of the last test or maintenance. This information can only be read from SMS. It is not available on the local HMI. The possibility to change the user notes is not affected by the setting restrictions ( OPEN / BLOCKED ) in the terminal, i.e. they can always be changed. The notes are changed when selecting Write User s Notes to terminal Screen 9 - Information presented Fig. 23 TRM--REP Screen 8 On this screen, the nominal values for the transformer inputs are shown. 1MRK UEN*

72 Appendix 2 Appendix 2.1 Diagnosing errors Check the technical requirements according to paragraph System requirements on page 12 in the chapter Instructions. Check the installation with reference to paragraph Installation procedures on page 13 in the chapter Instructions. The correct use of SM/REx 500 is presented in chapters 2 and 3. When errors occur, their type as well as a probable cause are shown in the lower part of the screen. Error messages normally have to be confirmed with <Enter>. The user is then brought back to the activity prior to the one that caused the error. See SMS-BASE User s Guide Ref. 2 in chapter 4: References for more information regarding error messages. 2.2 Error messages during communication When communication is bad using a telephone line, data is not transferred. After a number of unsuccessful attempts to transfer a quantity, the program asks the user to press <R> for a Retry or <Q> for Quit. Normally, select <Q> and terminate the call. Try to call again to get a better line. Both rear port channels on the terminal are normally served in parallel. However, during busy terminal situations, the service may be delayed and a busy signal (NAK 1) is sent by the terminal during read conditions and another busy signal (NAK 7) during write conditions. It is very important that the SMS user does not Skip any NAK messages. Either press Retry <R> or Quit <Q>. Otherwise, most likely the transmitted data is faulty or incomplete. 2.3 Adopting PC to SMS programs Sometimes when selecting Monitor PC-file information the text Not enough memory is shown on the screen. This means that less than the required 450 kb of work memory are available on the PC. One common problem is that other applications are resident in the same memory area in the PC. By removing these from the PC, memory is released and the requirement of 500 kb is fulfilled. 2.4 Removing Parts of Unit from an installation If any Part of Unit is not relevant for a terminal, for example SET-ASIG if the Disturbance recorder function is not installed, this part can be removed from the installation: 68 1MRK UEN*2.0-00

73 Appendix 1 Select the Alter application structure in the UTILITIES menu. 2 Go down the structure and select the terminal in question. 3 Select the part SET-ASIG and press <D>. 4 Answer yes <Y> to the question. This procedure can be repeated for any Part of Unit. The removal of parts due to the fact that some functions are not installed in a terminal is highly recommended in order to get a better overview. Also the removal of parts like SET--ALL or DRP-CLRS is highly recommended, if the philosophy of the user is that this action should not be possible from SMS. So, for each new instance of unit, the following work flow is recommended: 1 For each part select Read terminal data to PC-file. 2 Then select the Monitor PC-file information in order to check that the required function is installed, and if the part contains functionality that is of interest for the user. If not, the part should be removed according to the procedure above. 2.5 Handling SMS under MS Windows The SMS-BASE can be started as an icon in MS Windows as described in the SMS- BASE User s Guide Ref. 2. When starting SMS-BASE from Windows the PC will automatically open a DOS-Window in which SMS-BASE is run. It will then be possible to switch between different applications in Windows by pressing <Alt>+<Tab>. It will also be possible to reduce the DOS application to a smaller window, by pressing <Alt>+<Enter>. This means that the information in SMS can be overviewed at the same time as for example REVAL, as shown below. For more information regarding this facility refer to the MS Windows User s Guide. 1MRK UEN*

74 Appendix Fig. 24 SMS-BASE run as a small DOS window under MS Windows. 2.6 Error Messages Terminal blocked Internal fault: The internal supervision software of the terminal has detected an error, e.g. component malfunction. The input "block" of the trip function element is activated: By an activated input signal via I/O, internally connected/configured to the element. By another input signal e.g. "FIXED-ON" internally connected/configured to the element. By local HMI: In menu "Test" the alternative "Block Terminal" is On. The blocking must be released from the same menu by changing setting to Off. 70 1MRK UEN*2.0-00
